[CMS] CMS calendar widget

[Daniel.P]

CMS calendar widget when choosing date - in title is one day ahead.
I posted this bug to version 4.0.1
in 4.0.2 is still here.

It's your vbulletin user settings: my account; general settings. I bet it's off. Mine was. LOL.

[Edwin Brown]

Yes, there are a couple bugs on this. It works for me, which just means I haven't yet figured out the user setting that creates this.

I check the general account setting and mine are correct, yet the calendar is still off.

Has anyone come up with a solution for this yet?

[Edwin Brown]

I have tried a number of times to reproduce this, without success. I need to know, for a site where this is happening, the actual timezone where the server is physically located, the default timezone in admincp, and the user's timezone.

on vbulletin.com when My Profile
Date & Time Options is +2
DST Correction Option: automatic detect DST

[Warz]

www.sacredkeep.com
actual server location timezopne is PST
default timezone is GMT +5 (EST)
user's timezone is EST

I about to ask this question as well, but look like nobody got an answer for it . I just to set different timezone in Admin CP, but still no help .

At least I managed to figure out where the problem comes.
in user control panel.
1. when the time zone is -4
/ / Published on header and have the same date but different from the date you selected in the calendar widget

2. when the time zone is +2
/ / Header is one day behind the calendar selected in the widget ,
Published on is correct

Change your settings on site vbulletin.com the problem will appear

Thanks for the input. I believe the source of the problem is the way vBulletin handles daylight savings time. By changing the server DST settings I was able to cause I believe the same problem. I've made what I think is the correct change and asked QA to test. You'll notice the note of uncertainty. I won't believe it's fixed until QA says it's fixed. That's always true, but this time especially.

One of my moderators pointed out this anomaly just yesterday to me. Apparently, the days and dates don't match. e.g. Today is Monday on the 22nd of March. However, the calendar shows Monday on the 23rd of March. Is this happening on anyone else's side too?

Edwin, do we need to create a bug report for this? Any temporary fix?

for the time being I have removed the following code to stop displaying the date entirely in the widget;

     if($event['dateline_to'] == 0 )
     {
         $format = sprintf("On %s",date('jS M Y',$event['dateline_from']));
     } else {
         $format = sprintf("From %s to %s",date('jS M Y',$event['dateline_from']),date('jS M Y',$event['dateline_to']));
     } 

i'm not a coder so i'm not 100% sure if this is the correct remedy but i haven't come across any adverse effects on my site (besides not showing the date of course!) www.fragdiner.com

you know, i may be talking about something entirely different ROFL

[Daniel.P]
